From four years oi medical school, along with a thorough scientific education, let us hope that at least some at our colleagues have acquired a sense of the great re- sponsibility to society which each of us assumes in accepting a medical doctorate. As American Medicine makes great ad- vances there remains much to be done in the field of medical sociofeconomics. With the help of the American physicians l fervently hope the future may bring the betterment ol the economic and educa- tional conditions of internes and medical students, the improved distribution al the finest possible medical care to all our people, and the eradication of the social cancer of discrimination both in medical education and in the administering of medical care, a rhyme, MONROE E.

Yale, A.B. Someone said it would take four years to get through medical school and then a lifetime to get over it. Obviously, many of the things that have been pounded into us will saan be valueless. Perhaps we can get over these things along with the distortions of our years in the towers. On second thought, alter four years there must be some things that ought to stick for future use. There can be a few principles evolved far future living through this training. l can go through a few in mind now. My question really is how much will they be altered by the time t read this again?

Health and work, conflict and creation, pleasure and affec- tion are certainly involved.

Columbia, A.B. ln the last years of our academic train- ing, much valuable information has been heard and many enjoyable hours have been spent during little Chit-Chats or informal gatherings amongst the students, members of the house staff and academic staff. These meetings have token place in every part of the Medical Center including the coffee shops and lounges. lt is felt by many that no more desirable happening v could occur than a still closer relation- ship among student, staft and faculty. After the basic courses are put to memory, there is no pleosanter way to absorb the knowledge and wisdom of others than MARIANNE WOLFF New York, N. Y. Hunter, A.B. by the Chit-Chat technique. Why doesn't the fact that everything that goes up must come down, apply to elevators, or as the Americans soy, lifts? You have been standing on the ninth tloor waiting to descend to the ground floor since Y. K., lr. taught lub-dup, And all you see is elevators going up, up, up, And first yaur impatience, and eventually your curiosity grows keen, When you see the some elevator going up o dozen times without having been down in between. Is there a fourth dimension known only to elevator attendants, Or do they, when they get to the top, glide across the rool tothe next building and there make their descendence? With apologies to Ogden Nash. DAVID S. WYMAN Portland, Maine Bowdoin, A.B. The way they do it Uptown is a re- mark heard frequently and one with many connotations, The large medical center at times casts aspersions on the LMD, the l.CH, etC.f and the teaching approach sometimes seems overly academic. There is, however, no better source of medical criticism and the academic attitude is an invaluable foundation which should be utilized whenever possible. 1 t 1 X ilu. lt be included in the alphabetical listing.

Among professionals in the Arts, in- cluding the healing Arts, there is an under- standable resentment af the power that the customer, an ignorant outsider, has over the artist. The customer is to be feared, belittled and blamed, We frequently hear and make the statement that treatment tailed because the patient carne to the doctor too late, when the fault lies clearly with either the organization or the achieve- ments ol Medicine. RALPH LUDWIG SUECHTING Englewood, N. J. Amherst, A.B. As young physicians we have a tendency to became impressed with our position and all too otten forget that we are but little cogs lin the main wheel, ol coursel that keeps the human race ticking.

'Twas a romp for some, a bore for others, and a nightmare for the rest . . . but like all other wars, one fortunately is finally left with only the more pleasing reminiscences as all the mental and phys- ical trauma endured these past years is happily repressed. Remember that first year? The opening day exercises by our University President, Ike Eisenhower . , , yep, we knew him when. A real heterogeneous lot we were. A typical post-war bunch with veterans and draft-bait, young and old, the whiskerless and the balding, married and single, guys and gals . . . how heterogeneous can you get? Had a generous supply of true gen- iuses, same pseudos, and a nice contingent who quickly learned the whereabouts of the nurses' quarters, Roseland, the local pubs, the Polo Grounds, and the Yankee Stadium. Some of us were well-heeled, some married rich gals, others put their wives to work, and the rest scratched for the green stufl by selling their blood and working nights. We came from every part of the country and a handful from more distant places.

Lots of us got oft to a head start having had a vast amount of preemed training while others had the minimal requirements. Things were pretty well evened up by the end of the year although many of us weren't too happy with those first year marks. 'Course Reynolds got an automatic A in Histo for building his own microscope. 'H' Z' .' l fif .fx xk Q .in No one knew anybody, but we elected our officers. Joe Shipp was to lead us thru our first 2 years and capably com' manded the Battle of the Bookstore. Joe started that thing called a quick class meeting which was French for we shall now shoot the hell out of an hour. Man, we even had class meetings for class meet- ings. What a riot those were . . . and still are. All ofa sudden everyone's a comedian or a lawyer. Waller was the top banana of the rebel forces and always leveled the threat of secession. Praise Allah for Jack Shiller who usually made a stirring summation of the whole chaotic mess at the llth hour and rammed it down our throats. Hardly a day passed without a class meeting. In addition to the routine trivia, most of the meetings those first two years had to do with such momentous and controversial subiects as whether we should have beer or punch at the party, should we invite the faculty lHow silly can you get?l, when to blow up the bookstore, should lues be included in the Haelig ln- surance Plan, and last but not least, what exam date shall we change next. t The bookstore was really caught with :ir ophthalmoscopes down land prices upl lien the class advised them that we iould get it wholesale. The hassle was a patched up and everyone kissed and lnde up when the bookstore promised to e their Hershey bars to a flat five cents. lAnatomy found us being avoided in Q-vators and our best friends did tell us. I, Riiinders, he of the flashing steel, was fins as an anatomy instructor, Lots of lwewdiesu got wise and asked for his existance knowing darn well that after he lent IO minutes on their cadaver they kild knock off for a week. lThe hrst year also saw us introduced to luro-anatomy and Dr. Riley . . . the man vase left hand always knew what his rht hand was doing 'cause they were al- vys doing the same thing.

Mean deviations, standard deviation, squared deviation, chance varia- tion, chance distribution, and other such enchanting terms were thrown at us in such an interesting and entertaining fashion that we had to move to a larger auditorium to hold the crowds. Dr, Kneeland, bless him, came to our rescue by providing a much needed change of pace. His lectures in physical diagnosis were a far cry from the monotony and rou- tine which otherwise so characterized our 2nd year. Orchids to you, sir, we love ya. Second year Surgery did have its moments . . . especially the post-op follow-ups. There are easier things to do than taking a dog's temperature. The second year lectures really kept the note takers busy. Halpryn and Wilderman haven't missed a word yet. They must have kept 3 paper mills running night and day. Then there were those who made an at- tempt to outline the lecture, but soon be- came hopelessly lost and started scrib- bling as fast as they could. Others ap- peared to be more in command of the situation and would occasionally sneak pearls into their little black books. Still others lit cigarettes, had pen and paper available, but never encountered material that they considered worthy of noting. Others lust slept. The third year found us with a new class Pres-DeGroot carrying the ball the rest of the way. We were split up for the first time. Which section you got into depended on how soon you chose to face Uncle Robert. Some chose to get it over with quickly and others decided to wait until the last part of the year when they would be better prepared Ifoolsl. We all found out that it didn't make any difference-if he wanted ya, he got ya. lf your answer brought back fiddle-dee-dee you auto- matically handed in your stethoscope. Bar- low stirred the metabolism world with his new theory of Diabetes. The third year was otherwise fairly benign. Surgery was a lot of infusions, transfusions, and confusions. We spent the time giving cal gluconate injections and acquiring varicose veins, aching feet, broken backs, and lousy grades. Specialties consisted mainly of memorizing May's. All of us shed our white coats for a spell, donned our Sunday best, complete with bow ties and pocket handkerchiefs, and presto . . . boy psy- chiatrists. Sam Hoch was seen walking down Broadway with a couch on his back. Said he was making a house call. They gave us our first elective that year. Elec- tive-that's French for where shall l spend my vacation? J.

The third year closed with a real bang when Willie the Hawk Roosen hit the Bard Hall lawn, calcaneus first, from four flights up in the black of night. There's one rumor lroomer -get it?l that was in the air . . . and speaking of rumors, boy that's all we heard. Can guarantee you that's one Atch- ley history that didn't get the facts. Willie crutched into Group Clinic to start the fourth year but rarely made it to the chart desk each morning as some kind nurse would invariably direct him to the fracture clinic. The fourth year, as we had hoped, was like being a senior in high school again. We were farmed out to Bellevue for 2 months, and another 2 months was spent by most of us as substitute interns in various l hospitals. Only one course required an , exam . . . Ob-Gyn. Our lO days and nights l in the delivery room endowed us with l qualifications second to no cop or cab l driver. The complete A.O.A. list was made l public. Everyone else tied for l9th. l The big excitement of course had to do I with internships and for good reason. The l old laissez-faire manner of internshop- l ping lthat's a word?l was scrapped for a l bucket of bolts called an IBM machine that was designed to spew us all over the coun- try . . . it didn't take too long to realize the bad points, and thanks to DeGroot i and Katie Lobach a change for the better was made. t 4 N 7. l lllllmh 2411 Y 7 '2 '1 1 gf:-A L.

Roosen lured Al Margolius into the New England hills for a bit of skiing-Al's first and last venture. After four lessons, Al felt confident to try the big one so he went to the top with Roosen. Poor Al got all wrapped up in his work and one leg really went to Pott's. Willie didn't sweeten mat- ters a bit when he wrote Diabetic Diet on the 5West chart. The married members of the class had increased considerably in number. Start- ing with about l5 in the first year, statis- tics showed that by graduation about fifty would have lost their heads. We all began to really be concerned about the future and the decisions we would soon have to make. We were all pretty much agreed that we were lucky to have been P. 8. S. men and that these were four years that truly would never be for- gotten . . . lucky to have had Dean Sever- inghaus readily available to push or re- strain us at the proper times.

A Chronicle and a Critique NCE upon a time there was a strange and wonderful Class. lt had 90 boys and 3 girls, 13 hus- bands ond no wives, 4 daddies lno mothersl and 5 babies. These people were all suppressed sadists who had the common desire to serve society. W 4 '13 .., , :Ns I7 Coming together at o glistening ivory tower, they submitted themselves to the disciplines of Pedagogy. De- votedly they pondered the Great Thoughts: Central Inhibition, Status Thymolymphaticus, and the Rotation of the Gut. Doggedly they colored the ovarian tumors and studied cures for floating flatus. Even in the lap of love, they recited differential diag- noses. Months and years flew swiftly by, and a revised census Uune '5ll showed that now they were 63 boys and lO girls, 27 husbands and 3 wives, l2 daddies, i3 babies, and still no mothers. Now at last sadism could find expression in the tradi- tional practices of the Clinic. Rectal and pelvic land medicall digitaliza- tions apprised the lame, the halt and the blind of newly acquired aim ond finesse. The transition from books to beds lthough it will never be com- pletel had begun. The class was exultant. To mobilize this ioy, a few with derring-do summered the length and breadth of the land. From the banks of the Charles to the Golden Gate, from Greenland to Pike's Peak, these heroes sailed the smallest craft and scaled the greatest mountains, and they took time off to heal the living and to number the dead. At season's ezid, the sun-tanned ones reioined their sweaty city cousins. Once more the Ivory Tower vibrated, but now with legends from Walter Reed and Chicago Presbyterian and the dee partment of pediatrics at Mt. Sinai. Together again, the class addressed itself to the undressing of patients. But the class was not really to- gether, and it would be so no more: the members were removed from their own tight little circles, and were shuffled into odd inconsistent little groups that convened only ance a day for a noon hour of collective col- lapse. lnseparobles were torn asune der: McDaniels and Nork, cele- brated Tubes, performed their pranks apart like Amos and Andy on sepaf rate programs.

As one man, six Shankers bade early farewell to wives and children, and rode in the car of the day to the Tower. There they indulged together in the playful production of early- morning hematomata. Through this collusion, the blame for ESR's that were forgotten and not read could only be O.l667 per clinical clerk. The class, by handfuls, took a Cook's Tour of the Specialties. Here, those whose lives had direction gave bold assistance to the general group. In Psychiatry, Markowitz assumed this central role, for to his ripe and subtle mind, some months before, dozens of muddled souls had come for clin- ical counsel. Now conceding to popu- lar demand in the class, Joel tossed his natural shyness to the wind, and volunteered his rich experience con- cerning sex and sanity, so that French and Plaut and even Aronoff were paled. The outstanding contributions in Neurology were made, of course, by veterans in that field, notably Lloyd- Jones and Kurke. Lou's preeminence was more or less inevitable, for who could match the authority of his vest, or the modesty implicit in his ques- tions? Joanne's neurological triumph was in a different sphere, involved with her pleasant facility in making friends wherever she goes. Anesthesi- ology was true love for Julie, whose able fingers did not weary keeping other people's chins up. Haagensen, Harvey and Humphreys, reduced to silence, lowered their heads and carved on. ln this year, more and more of the class came to devote their leisure hours to the frank accumulation of wealth. The days of gay camaraderie in the Bard Hall dishroom were over, a delightful new game called Stab-cr Finger now claimed devotees. The 52 chance to play at this night sport at- tracted many of the unmarried men to the bloody banner of Daddy Jim Quinn, although some went off to play with other city teams. All these men received special training: they were taught to get up at 3, 4 and 5 A.M. and smile. In the Blood Bank, four husbands-Bryan, Burnham, Johnson and Mohler-played Musi- cal Chairs for weekeend duty vs. Sun- day at home. The class gave sanctuary to fugi- tives fleeing other Citadels of Truth, Dick Tobin, a modest fellow of good repute and pleasant company ffor further details see Whitcombl had gone as far as he could at Dartmouth, Ax Hill had presumably gone much too far at Cincinnati. At least there was a growing sentiment in Ohio that either Hill or that guitar would have to go. Whereupon, in a fit of rage he 'headed East, having packed his hip flask, 5 squash racquets, l7 briar pipes, a closet of well-cut tweeds, and a pair of tartan swimming-trunks with tobacco pouch to match. He ar- rived in the city close upon the heels of a spirited Belgian Casanova who yo-yo'd on the brink of decision and finally spun off to a lead-lined sanc- tuary in Boston. The class was still naive, for the most part, about its future. And that small number of individuals who felt positive at this stage of a direction in their lives were perhaps the most naive of all. ln this year of relative freedom from supervision, the only dependable truth was the elusiveness of material: the basic sciences not really mastered, the clinical pictures so quickly forgotten, and iournals pil- ing up, month after month, unread. ln the face of so much indigestion it was a hopeful note that the great majority of these boys and girls, dad- dies, husbands and wives, recognized the pitfall of committing their minds too early to a decision that was not running away, For at least another year, the class would stay on the fence.

October 241 Dr. Detwiler: Have you heard about the professor who dreamt that he was lectur- ing, woke up and found that he was? Having muddled through the medulla and piddled in the pons, been agonized over vast networks of cranial nerves, and temporarily interested in the contents of the petrous portion of the temporal bone, we moved on to hear about weird old Anableps anableps, the tour-eyed fish. Con- nective tissue loy in scattered heaps os the great Trigeminal and the mighty Facial Nerves fought for control over the 'facial muscles that ran from here to there without origins and insertions. Having sunk to the heights of scholastic endeavor in bringing order out of confu- sion, we stumbled toward Thanksgiving. November l3: We were all delighted, if not excited by Dotty .lohnson's lectures of the GU System . . . the same week as we slid through the Digestive System which left us permanently traumatized against smooth muscle. November ld-78: Tying up the remainder ofthe head and neck with the ribbon muscles, and with a terrifying triumvirate of pre-Thanksgiving exams drawing close, confidence bolstered spasticity as we consolidated our knowl- edge. November l9, 2l, 22, 24: Gross Histology Thanksgiving Embryology lBut God! The ax tell.l We relaxed from Gross, recovered enough to stagger through Histology, and reinforced with turkey, plowed through Embryology and ot? to the Yale weekend. A new carefree attitude pervaded the returned, and looseness was unofticiol as we nluscled in on the back. Neuroanatomy may have been a re- freshing treat, complete with Dr. Elwyn's construction of spinal tracts in the ether, but it was laid aside as, Shades of Shake- speare and Victor Herbert, we became ac- tors and producers! December 3: With the advent of official looseness and the onset of a general state of dissipa- tion, a new group spirit developed and a hundred-nineteen individuals became a class. Oh yes, it was the Brochial Plexus that we were currently ignoring. Lord Byron Stookey was not to be so lightly taken although perhaps the new spirit aided a better resistance than the last class had shown. He said he would, but Dr. Stookey gave no quarter . . . our three-fourths was sometimes scant, too. 72 .' 1 3 A P' ,fa ..,, 1.

From this more or less innocent begin- ning, the greatest party Bard Hall had ever seen slowly gathered momentum. lntoxi- cated by the success of the show, the Class of '55 rose to the occasion as Second Year men stood in awe. How loose can you get? A loyal group in the grill room rapidly sank into cerebellar ataxia and prefrontal inhibition . . . little else was inhibited, however. To the tinkling tune of two hundred trip- ping tumblers, and a five-piece band, the evening rolled onward, gaily-ioie de vivre. The Class of '55 had proven its social virility. December lO: Ever cautious, Dr. Agate suggested that although the cubic toot of muscle in the human body was theoretically capable of lifting sixty tons, for a more conservative answer he would divide by three. With this, the Class settled down to hibernate till Christmas. ,g N Just learn the big slut? -Dr. Alllroni ,I h i F ' V' X ' ax' X e- , xlir ., Y ,' - c , y ,415--i December l2f Ever-delightful, Dr. Kaplan told us a charming fairy tale about the little boat of Princess Trapezoid and Prince Trapezium, the magic SVAN, a big mountain, and lit- tle Pisiform, the iealous dwarf. The terrifying prospect of oral quizzes in Neuroanatomy turned out pleasantly and allowed Neuro to be cast overboard for Christmas exam preparations. Suddenly and starkly faced with a final in Histo, a hundred throats went dry and two-hundred eyes went exophthalmic. Slides, wet with cold sweat, were passed from hand to hand in a terrifyingly swift practice practical. The Anatomy Depart- ment decided to send us home for Christ- mas worry-free, and scheduled an exam for the same week. December 17: But we were loose and spent the re- mainder of the week merrily and dex- trously pulling tendons and uncovering the intricacies of the upper appendage. December 79: We cuddled up to our box of slides and blew the test to Hell. Fairwell to Histology. December 27. Well that's that. The Anatomy Depart- ment did their bit for a Merry Christmas.

Leonard Johnson, M.D. L. David Lobell, M.D. D. Dillon Reidy, M.D. John E. Sullivan, M.D. HEN the Class of '27 began their medical careers at the old P. 81 S. on 59th Street and lOth Avenue in l923, there were about lO5 students in class, the female contingent making up about a tenth of the group. Their curriculum was very similar to the present day one and they spent their first two years studying the basic medical sciences under such masters as Dr. Gallaudet, the Gray of the period, and Dr, Tillney in Neuroanatomy. In these roaring twenties burning of the midnight oil was not only popular, but was found to be a necessity by those who had hopes of completing their medical edu- cation. ln those days the lower lO to l5 fs of the first and second year classes were almost automatically replaced by transfer students from other schools. 76 Twenty-five years ago the short white coats bore a mark of distinction, and they were only worn on hospital rounds during the third and fourth years. Since the school was used at that time only for class room work, and no facilities were available there for clinical teaching, the students iourneyed to the affiliated hospitals for their clerk- ships. These included Presbyterian lwhich was then on the East Side at Madison and 7lst Streetl, Sloane Hospital and Vander- bilt Clinic lwhich were then adiacent to the old P. 8. S. Buildingl, Bellevue, Montefiore, Metropolitan, and Roosevelt Hospitals. ln those days there was no Bard Hall and the Knickerbockers, as they were called, lived at home or in nearby boarding houses. During their first two years our twenty-five year men had little time for any social life, but as they advanced to the third and fourth years their medical studies allowed them more time for relaxation and the local residences were the scene of many social gatherings. They climaxed their med- ical school training with a gigantic gradu- ation celebration which we hear was one to end all parties! We've enioyed reminiscing with the twenty-five year men and have found the only real difference between then and now to be merely a central grouping of all basic and clinical facilities lO9 city blocks up- town.

S on every senior medical class, the September pall had begun to settle on the fourth year students at P. 81 S. ltwas heralded by a careless word, a nervous shrug, but inexorably, surely, even the most in- sensitive of a group noted for its hair-trigger response to the slightest stimulus felt the pervasive sense of impending decision. Soon, now, the scramble for internships would begin, 'every man would temporarily for- sake his placid daily routine, put aside his more amiable virtues, and search his soul as well as his past record. There was nothing new about the pattern. Those who had seen it before smiled knowingly, rightfully confident that the uneasiness would pass. l ,- Foua-rv-i YEAR .s-ruoemr our: rwreausi-UP APvi.icA1-mu no S1-01' CAD - wx-ucu Lgnms N-ro cummce can AND P1PPblcA1'ioM is immsgim-sL.v Bunueo. item- causes mefzcunv re RISE 'U PRSSSURF GAUGE Licrfmcf cnpgce CCD Ia-Ni-rlrucf Rocxev CDD wr-ucH TAKES orrir 'Z Z My puccs ci-mm opemucf me case Dos- ci-loses fi Cm- QFD when games -mee. 9-'RD CGD Pues :nom BRAMCHES f ,I I Tuggugq waubow 'AUD is SHOT AT X ev HuHT'6'R QPU- f com-Punpmucf HAN13 CIJ, wmcl-1 Au'romA1'icnLL.Y MATCHES sruoen-rs AND noson-m.sl cefs 'me' emo wi-MCH MOUES y I Levee ANSD TURNS on swwcn CJD 51-marine FAN I-sveswsmv RESULTS QLD Ame mem-i.v awww ow T0 NEXT A, l SPAGG.

Through the formless appre- hension of the latest group of unwitting candidates, the time-honored sequence of lists, conversations with the Dean, applications, interviews, and at last, the coveted appointment, became reassuringly apparent. Of the decisive factor, the X which could throw all calculations awry, realization was to come later. It came soothingly, in an orientation talk by the counsellor and class an or-man, Dean Severinghaus. . There's a new plan for placing stud ts in hospitals this year. Instead of the old chaotic system of in- dividual. hospitals notifying individual students by phone and wire of acceptaii es on the appointed day, now, after the samerpreliminaries of application and interviews, the students and hospitals will send in pref- erence lists ich will matched by an IBM machine.

Let's go,,dIong with it and see howR Suddenly, what had een e clear course of action became confused, while what had been coqfu edly takenxfoiggranted wuicieaffy quesfcihcgi. The seeds of dissent were sown buti he soil wanted orderly cultivation. Once again it had to be demonstrated that common obiective oulcibgimr diverse and scattered groups to organ'l'z'e'5T1'd' a lilgwas to be demonstrated convincingly. After the preliminar flurry pfmtelegr V T31 exchanges of opinion, the midnight meeHhgEjZthg'reQimeQEd--- plan: a meeting of delegates from all medical schools was to be held at Bard Hall, presided over by Robert Dudley, chairman of the committee from Harvard Medical School. Obiections to the plan would be considered and constructive suggestions for its modification would be presented. They came from everywhere-slow-spoken Westerners, fiery South- erners, singly and in pairs, angry, conciliatory, questioning, listening to obiections, voicing their own. They voted to allow reporters, they waited an hour for .lohn M. Stalnaker, Director of Operations of the National Interassociation Committee on Internships, to come to them from LaGuardia Airport and five hours later saw him reluctantly cancel a flight to Wash- ington. For seven concentrated, intense hours, they hammered at the problem. They obiected to the manner in which the plan had been presented to them, as a fait accomplis to which they must add the gesture of returning by November l5th signed agreements to cooperate with it. The chief objection was to the sequence of matching. It was felt that with the order X given, a man could lose out on his second choice hospital even if it listed him as a first choice, because on the second run, those students who had that hospital as first choice and who were listed by the hospital as alter- nates would get the appointment. Therefore to be safe one would have to list as first choice a hospital one was sure of getting, since one could easily be passed on one's second and third choices. lt was not safe to take a fiyer. Moreover, instead of preventing the pressure of hospitals for prior commitments by students, which had been an evil in the past, the confusion and uncertainty on all sides seemed to be fostering such deals. V Drs. Mullins and Crosby and Mr. Stalnaker of the NlCl explained what was being attempted with the plan, that was, to improve on the difficulties of the old method. They felt that the statistics of matching showed that a great maiority of students would receive proper placing. Tactfully and with skill, the Harvard group presented the most accept- able suggestion of the day, a proposal to modify the matching plan in the direction of the tested and long successful Boston Pool Plan. Under this plan, the matching sequence was far different. lt was best explained in an example: A hypothetical student has five hospitals in choice order A, B, C, D, E. Hospital A lists him in its third choice group, B in its second choice group, and C, D, and E, in their first choice. He is immediately matched with Hospital C and held there tentatively. ln the meantime, Hospitals D and E are dropped from his list, thus opening up a place for alternates in those two hospitals. By the same token, a place may open up for him in Hospital B, and he will move up there, his Hospital C also being dropped from his list. He may or may not receive a place in A at which he was ranked third choice, but in any case he will have been appointed to the highest choice hospital he could make, and the hospital has likewise received its most preferred applicants in the case that they also desired the hospital. Found workable by the representatives of the NICI and the maiority of delegates alike, the modification was to be considered. The senior medical students were to be balloted by mail. Of 4275 who subsequently voted, 3'l7 preferred the original matching plan, 2380 the Boston Pool modification, 692 the method used the year before and 648 no plan at all. The NICI was to me 'n Chicago and decide whether the modification could be adoptedfThe issu ad been met. The outcome waited. The time would not be long. week, two weeks of doubt, and then, spreading 'without fanfare, but iubl tly received, came the work that a single telegram had arrived, voicing the cceptance of the modification by the NlCl. Out of urgency and need, a sol 'on had been found. The expecgd ?B'cfJenceegpuld continue, a peace of sor -gd return to the ardised fourtyear men, a wary truce which would hav tQ,5atisfy until March bright the true climax and decisgely resolved it. ,-f ' . 1 f-L ,XXQ i ,. lN, x X4 f X Wg -vc, ,ig ff, . , C 3 KJ 'x X Nl X 1' O. ,xx 3 , V .. pdf' I-N xix.. 4 ,- R ff' fx N , sf If -ff' l H - A 4 l T . -' y.'

FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF FRIENDSHIP AND KNOWLEDGE Phi Delta Epsilon came into existence in l903, and it was but four years later that the Columbia P. 81 S. chapter was founded. The fraternity is nationally strong, with 50 chapters in medical schools throughout this country and 30 post-graduate clubs. The national enrollment is l'l,OOO, of which l,O0O are medical students at the present time. Under the capable guidance of Consul Lester Cramer and his officers, Phi D. E. has completed a most successful 45th year at P. 81 S. In addition to frequent business meetings, the social sphere has been filled with numerous small gatherings held in Bard Hall. These have proved to be excellent source for entertainment on lonely Saturday nights, both for single and married members. Two inter-chapter dances with members of other New York medical schools were held in January and March. Academically, Phi Delta Epsilon was also active. Monthly dinner meet- ings with various members of the P. 8. S. staff serving as after-dinner speakers brought enlightening information to our members in a very pleasant manner. ln addition, Dr. lsadore Snapper was guest lecturer at the annual Clay Ray Murray Honorary Lectureship, this was the highlight of Bard Hall lecture series. v 1 li '1 E51 Ja Q13 I 1 ,onsul LESTER CRAMER 'ice-Consul JOEL MARKOWITZ Cribe SHERWIN KEVY reosurer STAN LEY OLICKER WRX SLS CLUB he schoo y . y h orticipationa Cottage ot Phy ician Coiumhia Umwer in BARD HALL. 50 Haven Avenue, WAdsw,orth 3-6800 e P Sm S Ciub, an organization whose membership is co students enroiied in the Coiiege at P. 81 S., tunctions to heip tuitiii som ot the recreationai, sociai and educationai needs ot the student bo The P 81 S Ciub was tormed over titty years ago as a branch ot the A, and tor many years maintained the oniy dormitory tacihties ava abie tor Coiumbia medicai students and tacuity betore P 81 S move u town to its present iocation. oday the ciub maintains a comtortabie and convenient tounge e eieventh tioor ot Bard Haii which it uses tor meetings, intormai dan iectures.

The Columbia Chapter, now in its forty-seventh year, has eighteen active members. Traditionally the organization's program has consisted ot a tall lecture and a student symposium in the spring. At the former func- tion this year a discussion of renal and hepatic vasotropic factors was presented by Dr. Ephraim Shorr of the Cornell Medical Center. Tradition was broken later in the yeor when a panel discussion was given by out- standing representatives of general practice, group practice, academic medicine, research, and administrative medicine who candidly presented the role they are playing in the overall spectrum of medicine. 89 it l l I . l l t l Q-lx First row.

One of these six founders was the famous clinician, William Mayo. ln l893 the Iota Chapter was installed at P. St S., which was at that time located in one of the toughest sections of lower Manhattan. Because the chapter found it impossible to maintain any sort of housing facilities for its members in this area, Iota had an initial stormy struggle for exist- tence. This however was corrected when P. 81 S. moved to 59th Street, and since then until the present Nu Sigma Nu has continued to grow, until now its local chapter enrollment stands at l77 actives, with 83 graduate mem- bers onthe Medical Center staff. Nationally, it is one of the largest medical fraternities, with T700 stu- dent members in 43 chapters, and a total membership of 22,000. Locally, the fraternity program is highlighted by the Annual Dawson Memorial Lectureship which in recent years has included men such as Dr. Alfred Blalock. Socially, all needs are more than filled by the frequent informal functions topped by interchapter dances with the Cornell and New York University groups. . Y' ru 7 f v .' ,E , .,.. ?

Throughout its sixty-three years, Phi Chi has shown unparalleled growth and development, which can be attributed to the magnetism of its ideals and to the benefits which it has consistently provided its student and graduate members. Total membership exceeds 35,000 with over 5,000 collegiate members in fifty-seven active chapters in some thirty states and Canada. Columbia's Chapter, Upsilon Sigma, was established October 30, l920. It has thrived upon its basic concept of promoting scholarship and fellow- ship. The local organization maintains a constructive program of education and recreation. Highlighting the monthly dinner lecture series were infor- mative, entertaining and provocative talks by Dr. Homer Smith and Dr. Russell Cecil. Social functions include frequent informal parties and twice yearly interchapter dances with the Cornell, Long Island and New York Medical College groups. These same chapters were host to the Phi Chi International Convention held in New York City in December of l95l. Q n 5, .. ,-,Lg-5. - Xi nfs!

Vg., ' s ...H-,, V HOME away from home-a center of lower learning-a convent--an uptown athletic club .... Bard Hall has been all of these, and more too at times. Most of us have lived within its sheltering walls for the last four years. I suspect that we are no longer able to view it obiectively-and may well grow nostalgic over it in the years ahead. When the Class of '52 arrived in l948, the Cunninghams lMy deahll held sway with a mighty hand. After their departure to the seas and sands of balmy Florida, and with the installation of a new man- ager, Mr. Thoms, many changes have come about, dictated by economic necessity, and viewed with alarm by many of us. And that is not to say haw the first year class views the situation. Compulsory dining is now an established custom--in fact some of the more spastic types in first year are already worrying that the program might be taken away. We're for it. We think that the quite noticeable weight reduction in the Class of '55 was definitely called far. And don't think that iust because they are pale and cachectic that they have lost their sense of humor. Just the other day we heard some of them laughing gayly as they fired another volley of glasses through the grill-room windows. All of you have heard a list ofthe faciliv ties available in the Hall, so we shall not recite them again. Let us mention a few of the highlights. We iiuve the largest sup' ply of ice in New York City. We have a night watchman who wards of? marauders -equipped only with the King James ver- sion. We have a whole floor devoted to the production of B. O. And we have girls -need we say more? Personalities, perhaps our greatest asset, cannot be passed over quickly. Stella triumphs easily in this contest. By dint of a pleasant voice, kind phrases, and abso- lute control over the meat supply, she has endeared herself to literally generations of P. and S. men. Unfortunately, she is re- tirinvg at the end of this year, to be re- placed, we expect, by one average worker and an air-raid siren. Bard Hall has been the scene of a few spectacles. For instance, on our roof last Fourth of July we had the only fireworks display in N, Y. C., complete with fire. Roosen's Infamous Leap was not just a flight of imagination. The annual Christmas party and Spring Festival each bring a one night stand of pomp and circumstance to our daily rou- tine, and are complemented by a weekly flood of lesser affairs. Roof parties are the rage in the summer time, and give us 0 chance to demonstrate our rnaiestic view of N. Y. C. to awe-struck outsiders. Y 7. Where does Freddie gel all that charm?

FIFTY YEARS 01? RIEDICAL PROGRESS lvniforni Srirrzri' The efficient coordination of an involved and multi- serviced lledical Center has become so complicated during the last half century' that the editors of this journal have recognized the need for a few explanatory remarks on the personnel, their attire. and a few facf tual hints on how to recognize them. The Long lflriii' Cont: Perhaps the trickiest and most misleading uniform, this garment has been worn by people ranging from Professors of lledicine to Dinars of the Department of Neuropathology. Also included in this category are Attendings, all ranks of Academicians. laboratory as- sistants, secretaries, technicians, and an occasional visit- ing freshman medical student from N. Y. lf. Some pointers to be remembered are these: a. Xlemorize the Heads of Departments. b. Look for a stethoscope. YVhen you End one, de- grees of respect may usually' be estimated by other factors such as age and type of stethoscope, age and degree of dignity of individual concerned, and height of hemline of garment above the wearer's knees. ffulfs are usually rolled and therefore unreliable.J It is to be noted that the presence of the stethoscope may also be unreliable in the case of the Department of Surgery. c. Secretaries have pencils' in their hair. d. Lab workers have stained coats and acid holes. The Short Iflritc Coat: a. lfitli lchiie Irouscrr: VVhen white Il'0llsCl'S are noted: the immediate differential includes interns. resi- dents, male nurses, orderlies, and members of the food service. The presence of the stethoscope is again in- valuable in detecting interns and residents. except in the occasional case of an ambitious male nurse. Some- times the faint stripe of the orderly's uniform is grossly evidentg moi'e usually, judgment must be used, con- sidering age, degree of alopecia, and presence of rectal thermometer in the upper right hand pocket. Residents can usually' be counted upon to wear bow ties, but an occasional intern from Harvard will confuse you. For- tunately the Food Service is beginning to label their uniforms, but an occasional new intern gets labelled also. b. lfifh rifuilinn lrouxrrr: A priori, this category always means the medical student. However, some- times it becomes desirable to further differentiate them into stages of progress. l. The first year man has a bewildered look and a new white coat. complete with illegibly' penciled notes protruding in a completely disorganized fashion from either side pocket. The upper left hand pocket is in- variably resplendent with a new pen and pencil set lusually a graduation giftj, Norma pencil and a ruler. Neckties may or may not be present. Some knowledge of the first year curriculum and a keen sense of olefac- tion are invaluable as a diagnostic aid. 2. l.ittle more than the drooping eyelids and waxen pallor of the second year man is necessary in this dif- ferential. The microscope, path slides and a badly' needed shave complete the syndrome. A grossly' new and carelessly dangling stethoscope plus the little blue pamphlet containing the latest national board questions are practically pathognomonic of the fact that a third year man is in the making. 3. The aging stethoscope and the shiny black pearl book of the third year student give him the look of a skilled clinician. This equipment is neatly' tucked into the pockets of his under-sized white coat, whose torn and tattered neck and sleeves serve as the hash marks of medical service. His present level of specialization is easily discernible by a visual inventory' of his upper left hand pocket, which will invariably contain a re- Hex hammer, tuning fork, Hashlight, and ophthalmo- scope. -l. Additional, more subtle changes delineate the fourth year man from all others. llis indifferent air of superiority and a leisurely pace mark him as the physician of tomorrow. His clinic appointments are scheduled late and his hour of departure, early. Those khaki pants and loafers have long since been replaced by pin-striped suits and well shined shoes. The tailored vest, the thick, well worn pearl book. and ancient stethoscope serve to differentiate him from all others. On occasion he may appear slightly worried during the early' Spring. but once internship announcements have been made, he again settles hack to reassume his role of the casual clinician.

For the past 7 months, pt. has noted girdle stretch, episodes of morning vomiting and ahnormal food cravings. P.l.: On New Years Eve after a big dinner, pt. had a feeling of malaise and epigastric fullness. Ptfs younger brother, a 2nd yr P85 student, gave her stllfa, penicillin IM and antihistamines, but upon noting that she still had a RFQ after 2 hours, advised hospitalization.
